Read Aloudは、テキスト読み上げ（TTS）技術を使用してウェブページのテキストを音声に変換します。ニュースサイト、ブログ、ファンフィクション、出版物、教科書、学校教材など、さまざまなウェブサイトで利用できます。Read Aloudは、読み書きを学習中のお子様や、失読症などの学習障害のある方など、コンテンツを読むよりも聞くことを好むユーザーを支援します。
Read Aloudでは、ブラウザが提供するネイティブ音声に加え、Google Wavenet、Amazon Polly、IBM Watson、Microsoft Azure、OpenAIなどのクラウドプロバイダーが提供するAI音声など、様々なテキスト読み上げ音声から選択できます。クラウドベースの音声を利用するには、アプリ内課金やAPIキーの取得が必要になる場合があります。
Read Aloudは、PDF、Googleドキュメント、Google Playブックス、Amazon Kindle、EPUB（epubread.comの優れたEPUBReader拡張機能経由）を読み上げることができます。
Read Aloud を使用するには、読み上げたいウェブページに移動し、ブラウザメニューの Read Aloud アイコンをクリックします。ショートカットキーの ALT + P、ALT + O、ALT + カンマ、ALT + ピリオドを使用して拡張機能を起動することもできます。テキストが選択されている場合は、Read Aloud は選択されたテキストのみを読み上げます。また、テキスト選択範囲を右クリックし、コンテキストメニューから Read Aloud を開始することもできます。
音声、読み上げ速度、ピッチを変更したり、テキストのハイライトを有効にするには、拡張機能ポップアップの歯車ボタンをクリックしてオプションページに移動します（歯車ボタンを表示するには、再生を停止する必要があります）。拡張機能アイコンを右クリックして、コンテキストメニューからオプションページにアクセスすることもできます。
拡張機能ポップアップには、ポップアップウィンドウのサイズ、フォントサイズを拡大/縮小したり、ダークモードを切り替えたりするボタンがあります。
Read Aloud はオープンソースプロジェクトです。バグ修正や翻訳にご協力いただける場合は、GitHub ページ (https://github.com/ken107/read-aloud) をご覧ください。

- Help needed! Major bug! NOTE: I did fix this by holding control and changing the page size with my scroll wheel. I'm shocked I thought of it even, but I use that functionality fairly regularly so most won't think of it at all and you needed to know about it asap as it renders the main function of the app inaccessible. I've been using the app for over a year and this is my first run in with it. BUG: When I click on options and the pop-up appears, the text that says 'Account logout' at the top doesn't know wether to put the word 'logout' on the same line or the line below it and so the pop-up is resizing itself at (i checked to give you an accurate number) 240bpm or 4 times a second, making it unusable. I can click on drop down boxes for example but they instantly disappear again. Luckily I already have a fantastic voice (piper alba medium) picked but you needed to know, because the app is superb. Its made a huge difference to me as someone with adhd to help me 'read' stuff I need to have read for deadlines that otherwise, my adhd can make literally impossible at times so thank you. Review: A friend asked me to design their novel cover and interiors and so I need to read the book, but on my own that is simply never going to happen. Not without Read Aloud! :D I know you didn't record the voices, but as a scottish woman, I really appreciate how diverse the voices are, that I could find a voice that was so familiar to me and thus makes it so much easier for me to listen for extended periods of time. Otherwise, again with adhd, can be such a barrier that I never come back to a particular task. That kind of accessibility is life changing for someone like me so thank you. Have a great week!

- I can't believe I found something that runs so well and I don't have to pay an exorbitant amount for. I initially downloaded this to help my adhd brain read about my hobbies but it's definitely going to be a huge help for classes and work too.
- Armando Vega
- It's really bad. It struggles to open and work. It is SO slow an un-responsive.
- Burns
- This is a really nice extension, it's got lots of voices which is nice.
- Christina Little
- how do you pause the voice?
- varun vaibhav tiwari
- works well
- Thushar Manoj 25BAI1418
- works like a charm even in difficult wordings
- Isabella Truman
- I have used this extension for four or five years now, and it is such a lifesaver! it works on websites, pdfs, etc., you can change the voice, change the speed, pause it, stop it, skip ahead on content, go back to content you may have missed. it's completely free, yet works better and has more options than any other text-to-speech service or extension i've ever found. genuinely i don't know what i would do w/o this extension, it's the only way i got thru undergrad reading, and it's now the only way i'm getting thru law school reading. i'm so grateful!!
- Wizards are Cool
- the text to speech is jarring and for some reason I cant change the voice, but other than that, it works.
- Raja Kumail Ali Nasir
- pdf reader isnt working
- Tim Pritchard
- So good for a free extension. Great selection of voices, too
- Lâm Trần
- I'm happy with this reader, but please add options to adjust the reading speed and voice pitch.
- Rory
- It reads stuff marked with aria-hidden and skips over plain text not marked as hidden.
- Christy Gilbert
- The only bad thing about this is that the voices are too robotic and not very human. When these guys are reading a story back to me I would like to hear the human in their voices as well as emotion.
- Mark
- Worked fine in Win 10. Switched to Win 11 and now it consistently skips the first few words of each paragraph. Tried it in several browsers and it performed the same... skipping the first few words. Pretty much unusable for me now. Looking for other alternatives.
- Ashish Alexander
- Cons: cannot read from different part of the big group of text, like other extensions can Pros: can use Edge natural voices
- Robert van Rees
- I use Read Aloud to proof read texts in multiple languages. Combining the strength of the written words and the FREE voices to hear if I made mistakes that were not caught by the spellchecker. I use it predominantly on Grammerly web app. But it also helps read any other website. It's best asset is that Read Aloud lets you add FREE voices, as well as the usual Microsoft, Amazon, and Google voices in many languages.
- Robert McCurdy
- SuperTonic F5 its faster then kokoro TTS!
- Francis Rokicki
- so good! a tip u should use is to highlight the text u wanna read instead of relying on it auto read to read the whole page becuase sometimes that can be unreliable.
- Linux Lambatan
- poor
- James X
- works perfect
- c a
- Used to work fine, but now when reading YouTube comments section, skips/doesn't read a lot of comments
- Johannes Hejslet Jørgensen
- Very useful, but not perfect. Often detects the wrong language, and missing settings for default languages. Also buggy reading of acronyms, which often make it hard to understand. Example: "PHP 8.5". In my contexts that will always be a specific version of the programming language "PHP". But it is read as "8 Philippine pesos and 50 centavos"
- Zhiqing 芷晴 (Kelly)
- Works great, but the included voices are pretty robotic and have low overall voice quality.

- AAnn
- Doesn't read pdf
- Dishi
- So accessible, easy and pretty.
- Trisha Phan
- I HATE how robotic it sounds, it makes it very difficult to process information. It also makes sentences sound like run-ons making it even worse
- Juan Manuel Lamperti

- saab virk
- I tried many Extensions but this is the best
- Denise Sanders
- It is helpful for very text heavy sites, but it tends not to say the first word of a section, so it hinders comprehension.
- Daniel Torres
- It works. 👍🏼
- J Beuthling
- Pretty good.. I set it to a different male voice on my pc .. not bad.. I didn't want to read this doc. had to fiddle with the speed etc.. Thank you !
- junkolow
- It sounds so mechanical and no intonation. Messages do not go into my head as it speaks so monotonous.
- Lukas Vog
- Feature Request: I love shortcuts and use them dailyyy. Could you add faster/slower to the chrome shortcut options? 🔥 Kind regards, Luke
- bunnycloud B.
- Very Good.
- Stopban Clear
- I was using it but it suddenly stopped working. This happened to both Google accounts. It kept showing "Loading". It is very annoying. Even remove it and then add it again, it's just loading, not working at all
